Hmmm ... herrlich, all die schönen Ideen die hier ans Licht des Tages kommen. Schaut mal was unsere liebe Freundin Annette Schiffmann hier für mich ausfindig gemacht hat. Es sind Gedanken des Lyrikers Eugen Roth zum Umgang mit wertvollen Büchern. Ja, ja, das kommt mir von meinem 15. Jahrhundert her alles sehr bekannt vor... Bücherdiebstahl war ein weit verbreitetes Übel. Oft enthielten wertvolle Bücher auf einer der ersten Seiten üble Bannflüche ... und wer deren Wirksamkeit nicht recht traute, der legte seine Bücher noch zusätzlich an Ketten ... Hmmm ... Wonderful, all the beautiful ideas that are revealed here. Take a look at what our dear friend Annette Schiffmann has found for me. It's the thoughts of the poet Eugen Roth on how to deal with valuable books. Well, well, it sounds all too familiar to me... Book theft was a widespread evil. Valuable books very often contained nasty anathemas on one of the first pages ... and those who did not really trust their effectiveness additionally put their books on chains ...
The Lord has rewarded me with art and through art I shall praise his name

I BID YOU WELCOME GOOD SIRS My name is Alisande
and I appreciate you've dropped by. I'm a limner and scrivener - or as you would put it in your 21st century - an illuminator and scribe. I was born in the year of the Lord 1394. Shortly after my 16th birthday, I suddenly found myself - heaven knows through which mysterious occurrences - in the 21st century. Since then I have been living with a couple who very lovingly and affectionately took me in. Since they are both painters and book illustrators, I can even help them with their work. Information about their art you can find on their websites: In the course of time me and my feline chaperone Harry became rather well known and started to receive a lot of messages from near and far.
It became clear: We needed our own space where we can correspond with all our devoted followers and friends. So Norman - one of my two artist friends - set up this 'Chronicle' for us. Here you can have a chat with me and my rascally mouser. Archives
